Emulating a thermostat from a multi-sensor

What I’m trying to do is set up a sensing device (smartthings multisensor in this case) so that I can say “what’s the temperature outside?”

Oh… Your use case is actually much simpler than the project below! But it’s not bad extra info.

Attempting a SmartTiles digital thermostat in lieu of a nest

Newbie here, I have been researching how to create a simple virtual thermostat that I can see in smartthings and on my tablets via smarttiles. I would like to hit an up or down arrow in the software which would change my thermostat value. The relay controlling my electric wall heater would come on until the temp on a nearby motion sensor reached that new set value. So kind of like a dynamically changing virtual thermostat. Does anyone have any idea how to make this, or something similar that I could modify? Thanks in advance!

So you’re saying Google Home only works with thermostats, not temperature sensors? That doesn’t sound right to me.
